Running Trainz Fullscreen in the Non-Primary Monitor

[Dymond]

Guys,
Hopefully this is the right forum for this. I run Trainz from home using a laptop connected to a docking station with a larger secondary monitor. Is there a way to force Trainz to open fullscreen on the external monitor? The only way I've gotten it to work is to make the secondary monitor the primary which kind of dorks up my laptop when I use it at work.

In TRS2006: When I run Trainzoptions file line to -windowed, but set the game/options/display setting/display resolution to my monitors screen native full resolution, it is in fact running in a fullscreen.

(Whether that helps you, or not).

Hi Dymond,

Cascade has it right for the older versions. With TS12 (maybe TS10 too), there's a box to uncheck to run in a window under the Options screen in the Launcher.

Unfortunately this doesn't seem to work in 2012. When I set the resolution to the maximum for the monitor while its running in a window, it actually hangs over into the other monitor because of the Windows Title bar.. Too bad the old custom resolutions don't work anymore in Trainzoptions..
